Mystery. Suspense. Thriller. Young Adult Fiction. HTML:"Mean Girls meets Donna Tartt's The Secret History with a little bit of Riverdale mixed in. So yeah, it's epic."â??HelloGiggles

"In People Like Us, Dana Mele delivers the Gossip Girl meets Pretty Little Liars young adult novel you've been waiting for."â??Bustle
Kay Donovan may have skeletons in her closet, but the past is past, and she's reinvented herself entirely. Now she's a star soccer player whose group of gorgeous friends run their private school with effortless popularity and acerbic wit. But when a girl's body is found in the lake, Kay's carefully constructed life begins to topple. The dead girl has left Kay a computer-coded scavenger hunt, which, as it unravels, begins to implicate suspect after suspect, until Kay herself is in the crosshairs of a murder investigation. But if Kay's finally backed into a corner, she'll do what it takes to survive. Because at Bates Academy, the truth is something you make...not something that happened.

I would give this book 3.5 stars*

I thought this was a super fast pace mystery that really hooked me. It def reminds me lot of both 13reasons why and pretty little liars. The mystery kept me engaged. I had a hard time becoming emotional invested in most of majority of these characters because so many of them were unlikeable especially the lead. But the mystery kept me so engaged. I thought the actions of the police made me so angry but I guess I could see that happens in real life at points. I do see the theme "every action has a consquence even if you don't notice the very similar to shows like 13 reasons why. I would def read more by this author in the future. ( )

After finishing a similar but much better YA mystery Thriller yesterday, this one’s flaws were glaring. I came into it feeling like I came in halfway through a movie and was missing some background. I didn’t understand or feel connection with any of the relationships (Friendships, familial or romantic) It felt like 2 kinds of mystery/thriller books down together. I didn’t feel like it all came together well at the end. ( )

teen fiction (private high school murder and suspense w/significant roles played by lesbian and bisexual female characters)

not too satisfying as a mystery, as the investigating main character gets sidetracked a lot--I'd say this is more of a murder/suspense, though there is a big reveal at the end. ( )

3.5 stars

Thank you Putnam Books and Goodreads for the advanced copy!

While the story was pretty unbelievable, I enjoyed the characters and their circumstances. People Like Us takes place at a boarding school with four friends who are being targeted for bullying after the murder of a student. Reminiscent of Thirteen Reasons Why, the victim punishes the girls from the grave forcing Kay to solve the murder before her secrets are publicized. With short chapters, fast pacing, and quippy dialogue this is the perfect read for a summer day! ( )
